The power fist is a mechanical glove mounted with a hydraulic jack. When punching, the jack pushes forward, smashing into the enemy. Sometimes, enough power is transferred to the target to knock them down. It is a mid-tier weapon dealing a decent amount of damage, albeit at a slow rate. This weapon is an improved holdout weapon, meaning it can be concealed if the players Sneak skill is 50 or greater.

If you look closely, you can see notches on the fist. They add up to 33.

As of the Old World Blues add-on, the power fist attacks much more slowly, even with maxed out Unarmed and high Strength, and with the Slayer perk, it punches rather the same speed as it did in Fallout 3, making it an unappealing Unarmed weapon. The slower attack speed is not present in the other variants like the zap glove and ballistic fist, however.
